Scum have Raw in the bag probs. Scum played pretty well.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Idk, scum is in trouble over there. That's why I didn't want to be drafted.

AC is conf scum b/c Mal was his biggest scum read and then he elected to save him? I'm pretty sure that scum knew each other b/c AC was town reading them all.

We didn't know who was scum at start but Leon told us when he arrived. I found out one of the scum and told them who we were anyway. There's a reason I pushed for me or Grey to be drafted and no it wasn't to eliminate buddying allegations, but it was the excuse.
Couldn't someone on RAW technically use their finisher on AC and guarantee an AC death unless the gladiate finished within 24 hours?

Since the person outside the gladiate technically can't be voted, I mean...

If both managers were scum, then I have to question how the game was balanced. That's the only reason I couldn't see them both being scum. I really do wanna know how it was balanced after the game, because I can't see how. Managers both being scum make it far too scum-slanted in every possible way, and we never got answers as to what happens if we lynch a manager. I'm curious about all that now.
The only possible way of balancing it at all is to have either two town managers or a town/scum manager. The fact that Leon could tell Smackdown who all the scum are on Raw after N1 made it impossible for town to win. There was no way at all without town literally lynching both managers on D1, and then the entire game premise falls apart instantly and it just becomes two normal games.
In the future, the optimal action for town on both sides is to instantly lynch/kill the managers and break the game. That's the only way town has a chance to win. Sadly, I don't see any other way around it. Breaking the game is the only answer to there even being a chance of a scum manager, let alone two.

Scum-scum managers are incredibly balanced. So are town-town managers. The only thing that is unbalanced is scum-town managers. This makes no sense.
Hilariously though we did get scum-town managers (I think) and it ended up not affecting the game in a negative way, because the town manager was the one who drafted scum. But in terms of balance, only the scum-town dichotomy had a chance to break the game's balance.
Scum-scum managers mean the two managers have to compete against each other as much as against the town. There's no way for cooperation, because the scum manager is stuck on their brand no matter what. It actually allows for a really interesting meta-game that we were unable to see.
Town-town managers is obviously balanced because neither manager will ever know who the scum are.
Town-scum are not balanced. All it takes is for the scum manager to draft one scum and it effectively ends the game on both brands by N2. Hilariously, (if AC is scum) the town manager managed to draft scum. But I think that was the least likely scenario. (of course if AC is town then this particular speculation is pointless)
